Welcome again to " Hey — it works! " , a column devoted to (L A)T E X and META tips and tricks. This issue is devoted to a single topic, a sequel to an earlier article on creating ornamental rules: we show how to construct ornamental boxes out of individual symbols. Please note that I have moved. My new contact details are given at the end of this article. Unfortunately , mail is not being forw...

Two sources of inoculum of reniform nematodes, Rotylenchulus reniformis, were identified for infestation of ornamental foliage plants in commercial greenhouses. These were water from a local canal system and rooted cuttings purchased from other sources. Eight ornamental plant species were identified as good hosts for the reniform nematode, with each species supporting a reniform population dens...

Hand drawn ornamentation, such as floral or geometric patterns, is a tedious and time consuming task that requires skill and training in ornamental design principles and aesthetics. Ornamental drawings both historically and presently play critical roles in all things from art to architecture, and when computers handle the repetition and overall structure of ornament, considerable savings in tim...

The article discusses 80% of pests found in the orchards Tashkent and Samarkand regions, their species composition, damage to trees parasites, as well populations, which cause particularly significant here. number predatory parasitic entomophages is a major area ​​study. Environmental factors have sufficient impact on reproduction development forests. Due high relative humidity air, this enviro...

Flower color is one of the most important features of ornamental plants. Its development and regulation are influenced by many internal and external factors. Therefore, understanding the mechanism of color development and its regulation provides an important theoretical basis and premise for the cultivation and improvement of new color varieties of ornamental plants. This paper outlines the fun...

Recently, fluctuating asymmetry (FA) of morphological traits has attracted great attention as a short-cut measure of individual quality. Whereas there is some evidence that FA of sexual ornaments is negatively associated with immune function, studies concerning FA and immune function in non-ornamental traits are absent. Here, we tested whether FA of three non-ornamental traits in hind limbs is ...

The propagation of palms for agricultural and ornamental purposes is accomplished typically by seeds. The few exceptions are certain cultivars of Phoenix dactylifera and some ornamental palms such as Rhapis spp., which propagate by vegetative (division) and tissue culture. Because of slow, irregular germination in most species, seed propagation may be a challenge. New palm species are being int...

The Early Cretaceous bird Jeholornis was previously only known to have a distally restricted ornamental frond of tail feathers. We describe a previously unrecognized fan-shaped tract of feathers situated dorsal to the proximal caudal vertebrae. The position and morphology of these feathers is reminiscent of the specialized upper tail coverts observed in males of some sexually dimorphic neornith...

The capacity to control developmental and morphogenetic processes in vitro has always been the fascination and primary focus of many ornamental tissue culture studies. Thin cell layers or TCLs were first used to control the development of flowers, roots, shoots and somatic embryos in tobacco pedicels. Since those studies over 30 years ago, TCLs have been successfully used in the micropropagatio...

Marigold botanically identifies as Tagetes (Compositae) genus is an ethnobotanically known drug, used from ancient times in the Indian system of Medicine for the treatment of rheumatism, cold, bronchitis, eye diseases, ulcers etc. Tagetes species, commonly known as marigold, are grown as ornamental plants and thrive in varied agro-climates. The genus has been recognized as a potential source of...
